Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Titus was asleep on the windowsill, but the minute the Midget girl jumped up onto the top of the computer cabinet, he hopped onto my lap, started purring and is staring at her as if to say, one bad look in my direction and I’ll kick your ass. She knows his Freightliner persian form and legs are too short to jump up there, so she is just washing her face and pointedly ignoring him.
Heck, while I am fantasizing how about Laura Ingraham for SCOTUS.
Thank you! Ooooh-I just don’t know how I’d ever have put tile on a customer’s wall without all the new highways-especially since I use farm roads to get to them-highways are miles away (thank God). Most of the businesses here don’t want infrastructure/highways, etc-the more rustic it is, the more tourists come and spend money (in better times, that is)...
I will be depressed with you, if it is not Rubio-while he may not be the most experienced, he is smart, knows what hard work is and he isn’t afraid to go on the attack, if needed. The other choices might as well be carrying a calculator and cell phone around-boring. And it is not just because he is hispanic, although it does give him an edge on those issues, too.
The rest of them might as well be invisible they are nonentities. And yes Hispanic is exactly what we need to generate some enthusiasm. The rest of them are soporifics!!
A+++ our grimmy is not inimical !
I was discussing the VP thing with a neighbor over the weekend-we were both hiking the same trail Saturday morning. She asked what I thought of Daniels, and I told her he was probably as effective as Ambien-she gave me a say-what look, so I said boring, and she said oh, you are right. I convinced her that Rubio was a much better choice.
Is anyone watching Cavuto? I just heard him fire off the words “hard” and “stiff” in referring to mayor-wanna-be Weiner-does any city need a mayor who is the-um, butt-of so many jokes...
I don’t know how he got through that piece with a straight face. My youngest was sitting on the couch, reading, and perked up saying WHAT did he say??
NO.
we’d all love to see Rubio give more speeches, but as a surrogate.
Leaving the Senate to be Veep would hurt the Country longterm, because he will be President someday.
There perhaps won’t be much of a country left to preside over if he isn’t on the ticket to boost romneys chances. The other potential candidates are woefully bland and nondescript.
And Daniels is a dang midget! Besides the wife has some nefarious past that won’t permit him to run. She left him and the kids and ran off to California for awhile.
Mars has an atmosphere inimical to life.
"Obama" has an attitude inimical to the Constitution's health.
You have FRmail with a tough but nifty (and perhaps previously unposted) word I ran across today. :)
Darling, you know I love you but...
JOE FUCKING BIDEN is vice president of the United States.
We don;t need Dick Fosbury to clear that bar.
(Stop me before I sub reference again)
I confess. AND APOLOGIZE...LOL
Im doing it there, I think we should do it here..

Every day, one quote from the Won.
(A note...my computer has shut itself down....twice ; )
Rubio - because FReepers haven’t obsessed about natural born citizen enough.
well i know they’d have a conniption over the natural born citizen crap, but they are a fringe minority are they not? the populace at large is not going to fixate on that crap. i know hobbes thinks we have a stone cold lock on this election, and that it isn’t necessary to have a draw such as rubio, but i am not convinced. i think we are tempting fate by selecting these vanilla whitebread boring white dudes [pawlenty, portman, thune, and Mitch Daniels from MIDGETVILLE]. MAYBE paul ryan could be ok, but the rest of that slate of nobodies, i just don’t think is going to elicit enough excitement. and no jindal won’t do it either though he’s more chocolate than vanilla, and more cajun gumbo than whitebread.
